Are these suitable for wide feet?

Troubleshooting
Hook and loop straps are not staying fastened
Clean out any lint, hair, or debris trapped in the hook portion of the fastener using a clean toothbrush or tweezers.
Scuff marks on leather surface
Gently rub the scuffed area with a soft cloth dipped in a small amount of mild soap and water, or use a leather-safe cleaner.
Shoes feel tight after a growth spurt
Since the 574 uses a wider last, ensure the straps are fully loosened when putting the shoe on; if the foot is still compressed, it is time for a larger size.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these shoes arrive ready to wear, no technical setup is required. To ensure a proper fit, verify the child's size against the UK sizing chart. For care, keep the leather uppers in good condition by wiping away mud or dust with a soft, damp cloth after use. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a clothes dryer, as excessive heat can damage the leather and the adhesives in the hook and loop fasteners. If the leather begins to look dull, a basic leather conditioner can help maintain suppleness and weather resistance.
